Help Us Stop Homelessness Before It Starts

Help Us Stop Homelessness Before It Starts

The face of housing insecurity in LA looks like your neighbor – the retired senior on a fixed income, the single parent staying home to care for a disabled child, the restaurant worker who serves your morning coffee, or the healthcare aide who cares for our loved ones. Anyone can be one unexpected expense away from losing their home. Join the Angelenos who have contributed to expanding this critical work across Los Angeles.

Sticky Notes of Gratitude from LA Tenants

Every note on this digital wall was shared by a tenant who came through our doors for eviction help in Los Angeles. These tenants were served with an eviction lawsuit, also known as an unlawful detainer. Some came to us early, as soon as they received a 3-day notice to pay rent or quit. We helped them respond to their unlawful detainer correctly and filed it with the court on time so they could fight to stay in their homes. We also connected them with resources to help stretch their income and with free legal help to defend their case in eviction court.

These are their words, in their own handwriting. We are grateful to them, too, for trusting us with what matters most to anyone: the foundation of home.
